Given our state’s rich and extensive history, Arizona is home to its fair share of supposedly haunted places. From restaurants to cemeteries, ghosts have infiltrated countless buildings and spaces. One such place, Casey Moore’s Oyster House is a restaurant and bar in Tempe dating back many years. Not only is it a hotbed for paranormal activity, but the building also has more quirk and character than any establishment of its kind.
Casey Moore, the restaurant’s namesake, was born in 1886 to Irish immigrants. She was an entertainer, attracting friends and neighbors from up and down the block with her melodic piano tunes.

Today, her spirit is said to linger in the restaurant’s bar area. Guests have seen a woman in dated clothing twirling around the dining room, occasionally tugging on neckties and sending objects soaring through the air.

Fortunately, she isn’t prone to snatching food off the plates of hungry customers — although it’s probably tempting given how delicious everything is. Start with the escargot, baked to perfection in a pool of homemade scampi butter and served with garlic toast.

A meal at Casey’s wouldn’t be complete without oysters. Get ’em fried, chilled, or even on a Po-Boy sandwich with cabbage and pico on a toasted French roll (cocktail and rémoulade sauce on the side, of course).

Those with more adventurous palates might prefer Oysters Rockefeller. Smothered in bacon, spinach, and the restaurant’s famous Mornay sauce, they’re light and indulgent at the same time.

Other options include crab cakes, shrimp cocktails, tacos, sandwiches, pasta, and more. There’s no such thing as a bad meal here.

Dogs are welcome on the patio until 5 p.m. Just beware — your pooch might start barking at someone invisible.
